The Human Rights Movement in China

Dr. Wen Chen has participated in the production of multiple culture programs by New Tang Dynasty Television, including “Journey to the East," “Learning Chinese is Fun," “1,000 Steps of Fun in Taiwan,” and “Zooming in China." She is also an active member of Amnesty International, where she focuses on human rights issues in China. Dr. Chen received her Ph.D. degree in Biology at California Institute of Technology (Caltech) in 2000. She currently works for Caltech as an Associate Biologist. Since 2011, she has given more than 150 presentations to service clubs about Chinese culture, history and human rights. Millions of Chinese people have been arrested for their spiritual beliefs or political views. They have not only been tortured and forced to do slave labor, but also killed for their organs. While it takes two-to-three years in the U.S. to wait for matching organs, it takes two-to-four weeks in China. The state sanctioned organ harvesting towards prisoners of conscience has been operated by the Chinese police, legal and military system. Evidence and international responses about forced organ harvesting in China will be presented, as well as the following: how the Chinese Communist Party penetrates U.S. society to influence decision makers; the human rights movement in China which began in 2004; innovation that allows people to bypass China's Internet blockade; human rights lawyers in China; the movement of quitting the Chinese Communist Party; and more than 220,000 lawsuits against former dictator Jiang Zemin.
